Why did you choose LSE, and why did you choose your programme of study?
The LSE is a well renowned institution and one of the top social science universities in the world with cutting-edge research and teaching base. I had previously studied psychology as a component during my Bachelor's degree and I wanted to combine the principle with an additional organisational context.
Overall, how do you look back on your LSE experience?
It was a thoroughly enjoyable experience and provided with additional tools for me to advance my career.
Please describe your career path to date.
I have since worked for a human resource consultancy. My degree allowed me to evaluate difficult work situations and helped me enhance my problem solving techniques. In my most recent job as a fixed income broker, I have managed to build and enhance relationships with clients in the financial markets.
Why did you choose your current job?
I was offered the position and I regard it as a good opportunity for career progression.
Tell us about your current job.
I am a fixed income broker in the financial markets. I work in a competitive environment. It is a high intensity job with many responsibilities. I work in London and feed of the fast paced rhythm of the city.
What advice do you have for LSE students who are looking to enter a similar profession to you?
